Speedy Sweet Peas

Having a bit of a garden party in about 5 weeks time and hoping to get some sweet peas flowering by then.

It that overly ambitious?

If not - am I better sowing them direct this afternoon or putting them in cells in a propogator for a few days??

Thanks for any tips!!!

Wouldn't hold my breath on it, but trying them in the propogator might get them going faster. You can't lose for trying.

Thanks - yes, it will be nip and tuck!
Probably should have done them a good month or so ago.
The only other option is to buy plug plants I guess but I really don;t want to have to do that if I can avoid it.

I plant mine in autumn. I think you have more chance now if you buy some plants and pretend they were grown byn you!!! :twisted: :roll:
